Industry leaders reconsidered data location due to sovereignty risks: Survey

"The potential consequences of not having a modern and realistic data sovereignty strategy are acute. Loss of trust, financial damage and competitive disadvantage are possible outcomes that cannot be ignored. We recommend a hybrid approach to data sovereignty: start with a risk assessment across workloads, keep critical workloads sovereign, and use the public cloud for the rest. A balanced strategy optimises reducing risk while maintaining speed of innovation and organisational resilience," said Alex McMullan, Chief Technology Officer, International, Pure Storage.
